Triangle Truss Bridges: Students design and build truss bridges, then test the strength of the bridge by attaching a scale. You can find the lesson plan, 1-page project sheet, and more project ideas at STEM-Inventions.com <br>

Types of bridge trusses

What is truss bridge? Truss bridge is a bridge composed of connected elements (typically straight) which may be stressed from tension, compression, or sometimes both in response to dynamic loads. Truss bridges are one of the oldest types of modern bridges. Truss bridge is economical to construct owing to its efficient use of materials COMPONENT PARTS OF A typical TRUSS BRIDGE – elevation view COMPONENT PARTS OF A typical TRUSS BRIDGE – isometric view Ilustration mass loading of truss bridge…

Building model bridges is fun. So fun that sometimes you might not even know you are learning. Physics, math, and engineering concepts are brought to life through the hands-on project of designing and building a model bridge. Garrett's Bridges is a resource used by teachers, students, and parents alike for turning model bridge building into a fun and rich experience.

The Warren truss bridge is an extremely popular bridge design, and many examples of it can be found all across the world. In this article, we will look at some interesting information about this design, such as its history, working, pros and cons, and much more.

The Arthur Ravenel, Jr. Bridge, Charleston, SC closed due to ice when this photo was made. The main span of the double cantilever truss bridge, fifth longest in the world, at 1050 feet and 150 feet above the Cooper River. The main span of the second cantilever, twelfth-longest in the world. The total length of the structure is about 2.7 miles, third longest cable stayed bridge in the Western Hemisphere, running path on the bridge extends beyond the bridge, and has a maximum grade of 5.6%

Toothpick Bridge is a great Science project to test your Physics and engineering skills. The way you design it is important because your bridge should have a proper balance while at the same time being sufficiently strong. You can choose to do an arched bridge or a regular rectangular one. Keep a few design blueprints

Triangles are very strong shapes which makes them important when building strong and stable structures
